The girls all woke up early two days later, they got dressed down in comfortable pajama pants and long sleeve shirts for the flight ahead of them.

Emily made coffee and almost jumped at the pounding on the front door, she looked at the clock and saw that it was only 3am.

Opening the door, she was practically run over by the football team, "We're here!" they yelled, each giving her a hug.

Emily rolled her eyes, letting them in, "Behave yourselves, Penelope is already in a bad mood."

The boys groaned as Morgan went off to find his girl.

JJ huffed at the top of the stairs and rolled her neck, "Help please, this bag is heavy."

Two of the boys came up to help bring down her's and Emily's bags, setting them by the front door. JJ smiled and leaned into Dean, once in the kitchen.

"Well buttercup, ready for a ski trip?"

"Ask me after I get some coffee in, Dean"

The boy laughed and hugged her from behind, as Emily handed them both a cup of hot coffee. The brunette then set out 11 other cups and filled them, "Coffee's ready boys!"

"What, is practice being held in our house today?" Penelope asked as she saw all eleven players in the living room.

"Ha ha," Morgan mocked, putting her bags down, "We told you, we'd pick you guys up and carpool to the airport."

Penelope nodded and sipped at the cup Emily handed her, "I'm grateful my love"

Emily rolled her eyes and finished her coffee, everyone else doing the same as it neared time to leave. With the glasses washed, Emily let the boys carried their luggage down to the cars as she and girls grabbed last minute things and locked up.

The lot of fourteen packed one SUV full of luggage with Morgan and Pen in the front. The next SUV had Emily riding shot gun with Dean driving and a few boys in the back, leaving James and JJ in the last car with the rest of the guys.

The ride to the airport was fast, other than the line of traffic to park. Once everyone had their bags, the large group moved out of the structure and towards the entry doors.

"REID!" The boys yelled out as the 17-year-old genius jumped, Katherine giggled from his side as he was all but dragged away from her by Morgan.

The girls exchanged hugs with the new member of their group and chatted amongst themselves as the guys joked back and forth while they rode down the escalators towards flight check in.

"And there's the football team," Rossi told Strauss and Hotch as both adults turned to looked at the group coming towards them.

Hotch made a face as he saw Emily smiling at JJ from Dean's arms, he didn't like how that boy was holding his girl.

Rossi looked at JJ as the blonde walked closer, James' arm thrown over her shoulders, keeping her close. He bit his lip, wanting to be that close to her. He shook his head and held up his hand to the group, he held up a clipboard and asked them to form a line.

"Ok guys, I just need your first and last names to check you off the list," he smiled, starting with the ladies.

"How did a bunch of football players end up with the prettiest girls here?"

JJ smiled as she popped out her chest ever so slightly, "I asked myself the same thing," she looked around and saw Dean Strauss stopping a different group behind theirs, "But the man I really wanted to bring me here, wasn't available."

She gave Dave a small wink, "Yet."

The older man gulped and check her and the other three girls off the list, "Maybe he'll be ready when you get there."

JJ picked up her small backpack, "I sure hope so." She whispered and walked off with the girls.

Rossi smiled and shook his head watching her go a little longer than he should have, turning to the boys he rolled his eyes at the team, "Pink is definitely not your color Mr. Morgan."

Emily sat quietly in her seat as people around her were socializing with each other and drinking champagne before takeoff, Emily was thankful for her father's travel points as she used them to save money on her plane tickets roundtrip and of course with his connections she was able to get first class tickets for herself and 2 other friends. She offered them to the girls, JJ took her ticket with a smile but Pen decided to trade her's in for two coach tickets for both her and Morgan. As long as both were happy, Emily didn't mind what they did with the tickets. The first-class seats were amazing, only two people per aisle with an optional curtain to block out any and all unwanted company.

She was a little sad that JJ was all the way across from her on the other side of the plane, she only hoped that she would be alone for the next 17 hours they hand on the flight. With her luggage in the overhead carrier, Emily had her legs tucked under her with a blanket and a book in hand. The plane was to take off in a few minutes once everyone was boarded and by the looks of who was in first class, Emily saw both staff and students taking up some of the seats.

She shook her head and took a small sip from her champagne glass, burring her head in her book further. Humming along to the music coming from her iPod, she was all too busy to notice the people around her, instead her mind was over taken with flapper dancers, extravagant parties and a mysterious green light.

Emily's head shot up as a duffle bag was dropped into the seat next to her, "A-Professor! You scared me,"

Hotch grave her a soft smile, "My apologies Ms. Prentiss. Although, it does look like the two of us are flight buddies."

Emily almost giggles but instead she just grinned, "Well in that case, please join me."

He stuffed his bagged into the cabinet next to her's and took his seat, grabbing two fresh glasses of champagne from the stewardess as she cleaned away Emily's old one. Thanking the woman as she walked away, Hotch handed Emily her new glass and smiled.

"Well," he started in a lower tone, "If this is the way I'll be able to spend some time with you, then let's toast to your graduation."

Emily smiled and rolled her eyes, "And maybe to some fun times sneaking around on this trip too."

Hotch laughed as they both took a sip after their toast, "So, how'd you manage to get this seat on the plane?"

"I switched tickets with Dave after looking at the flight roster, if I hadn't then I would be right over there."

Emily looked at where he was pointing and grinned, "Oh my god"
